The Student

Buzz, Buzz, still tiered eyes open, She walks down stairs, packs up, and gets on the bus, She stares out the window wishing to spend the day there and not at a desk. 7 FULL HOURS of of unempathetic teachers, they give her 6 more hours of school work to do at home. No one cares! The homework starts on the bus and she's lucky to have it done by 10PM. Finely, she gets to go to bed, But all she does is stare at the sealing with the overhanging stress of the work she didn't finish combined with the work her unrelenting teachers will give her tomorrow. It happens each day, It's beyond her control, she tells teachers and friends but they spit in her face telling her they don't care. It won't change. Luckily, she has her head on strait, and while she trudges through the mud she stays strong, knowing that everything is going to work out. So she tells herself just wait.
